The Verdurous Semi-hand Tai Ping Hou Kui Green Tea

By TeaVivre on 22/05/2013

The distinction of semi-hand Tai Ping Hou Kui is on the process of pressing. After picked, the fresh tea leaves from Shidacha tea trees will be hand-extracted of one bud with two or three leaves. Tea workers then lay the leaves tidily on a square grid. Spaces between each piece of leaf must be even. Then the tea workers will use a shaping machine to press the grid containing tea leaves. Lastly, put the grid in roasting oven. This is how the semi-hand Tai Ping Hou Kui is made.
